Best Places to Buy a Condo in South Florida
South Florida is one of the biggest condo markets in the country, and the choice can be overwhelming. Oceanfront towers, Intracoastal mid-rises and downtown buildings all come with different fees, rules and lifestyles. Since Florida's condo safety laws changed, buyers also need to look closely at each building's inspections and reserves. Here are seven places our condo buyers compare most.
Oceanfront and beach towns
Singer Island has some of the best oceanfront views in the county and quick access to the Palm Beach Inlet. Browse Singer Island condos for sale.
Highland Beach is almost entirely oceanfront and Intracoastal buildings between Boca Raton and Delray Beach. See condos for sale in Highland Beach.
Juno Beach offers smaller, quieter buildings near the pier and nature preserves. View Juno Beach condos and townhomes.
Island living
On Palm Beach, condo and co-op buildings offer a lower entry point than single-family estates on the island. Check Palm Beach condos and co-ops for sale.
City living
West Palm Beach has downtown towers within walking distance of Clematis Street and the waterfront. See West Palm Beach condos and homes.
